Barcelona could play in the French League in light of possible Catalunya indepedence - Barca Blaugranes
Due to Catalonia trying to gain independence from Spain, Barcelona and Espanyol may be forced to leave La Liga if the referendum passes. This is because the Spanish league system only allows for one foreign team to compete, and that team is the lowly FC Andorra. The article says Barca have petitioned the French, Italian and English FAs with only the French being open to letting them join. Not sure what's happening with Espanyol, as the article features on a site based around Barcelona news.
If Catalonia does gain independence and Barcelona can't get into another league, I'm not sure what would happen in regards to their players.
